# Talanoa

> Read email as conversations and keep follow-up work nearby

Talanoa is an email client that presents threads as chat-like conversations. It reduces repeated quotations, signatures, and disclaimers in the reading view, while keeping replies within the existing email workflow. Messages that require more than a response can become tasks with a due date, project, notes, and a link to the original conversation.

A built-in calendar supports responding to invitations and sharing available times without leaving the inbox. Talanoa also offers local AI features in beta for searching email and attachments, summarizing threads, and drafting replies for review. Locally stored email remains accessible offline, with outgoing messages sent when connectivity returns. Availability of AI features and account connections depends on the supported platform and configuration.
